What in the world is that "Tour Bound" contraption?

It is a machine to help you feel the swing of a professional. I think the idea is pretty good, but I think it needs some serious technology improvements and price pressure to be something more people can use.

OK, I get that.  It's easy to look at a pro and try to copy what they are doing, yet have no real idea if you are doing it right.  Video helps with this a lot, but I can see how this might help even more.  Certainly it could help you feel things better.

Then again, all it could really do is put your club in the right position ... it doesn't look like it could stop you from manipulating your body into whatever goofy position you wanted to so it seems like its maybe just a fancy version of those big pvc circles I've seen haney (or whoever) using to get people to feel the correct planes.

Doesn't seem very viable, but I might just not understand it yet. :)

Interesting idea but all it does is put the club in position, not the body.  I don't know how much muscle memory it can really create.  When I saw it I just had to record it.

Im really excited for the new iLINE Lamkin is coming out with. I contacted  customer service and they shared a little more about them.. "The new iLINE is made out an advanced elastomer material that has the Crossline surface pattern.  These should be available in early March."

      However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
